Documentation for the IIS + PHP<\/strong> brainstorm and the MVP implementation<\/strong> shipped in this chat.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Related: BrainstormIntegrations.md (BrainstormIntegrations.md) \u00b7 PhpGraphs.md (PhpGraphs.md) \u00b7 ProgramStatePortal.md (ProgramStatePortal.md) \u00b7 DiscoveryWordPress.md (DiscoveryWordPress.md)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Goals<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Treat IIS + PHP<\/strong> as the public\/edge web plane<\/strong>, while _AugmentedIntelligence remains the cognitive\/ops plane<\/strong>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

[text]
<\/em>[AI host: typed commands, discovery, agents, GEMM]
        \u2502 REST \/ file export \/ dry-run ops
        \u25bc
[IIS: sites, app pools, TLS, rewrite, FastCGI PHP]
        \u2502
        \u25bc
[PHP: program_web_portal, minecraft dashboard, WordPress, custom APIs]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Three integration modes:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Mode<\/strong><\/td>Direction<\/strong><\/td>Status in MVP<\/strong><\/td><\/tr>
A. Publish-out<\/strong><\/td>AI \u2192 PHP\/WP<\/td>Discovery\u2192WP; graph JSON deploy<\/td><\/tr>
B. Ingest-in<\/strong><\/td>PHP \u2192 AI<\/td>Designed (signed webhooks); not fully live<\/td><\/tr>
C. Ops-control<\/strong><\/td>AI \u2192 IIS<\/td>Read-only doctor\/list; recycle dry-run\/apply<\/td><\/tr><\/tbody><\/table><\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Implemented commands<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

All routed through _BrainstormIntegrations (also via integrate \u2026).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

IIS<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

[text]
<\/em>iis status                 # list sites (PowerShell WebAdministration or appcmd)
iis doctor                 # feature probe, php on PATH, appcmd presence
iis list                   # alias of status
iis recycle <pool>         # dry-run plan (default)
iis recycle <pool> apply   # live appcmd recycle (gated)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Defaults:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  • Mutations require explicit `apply`<\/strong>.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  • Safe default pool name if omitted in some forms: DefaultAppPool.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

    PHP site<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

    [text]
    <\/em>php site status
    php site health                      # index.php \/ api.php \/ graphs_all.json presence
    php site config root <path>          # e.g. program_web_portal or IIS wwwroot
    php site config url <base_url>       # e.g. http:\/\/127.0.0.1:8090
    php site deploy                      # dry-run: would write graph JSON
    php site deploy apply                # write graphs_*.json under root\/data\/<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Default root if unset: program_web_portal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Default URL: http:\/\/127.0.0.1:8090.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Architecture brainstorm (full vision)<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

    Phase 0\u20131 (partially done)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
      \n
    • Document topology and dry-run rules<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • iis doctor, iis site list, php site health<\/li>\n\n\n\n
    • Graph JSON deploy into PHP root<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

      Phase 2 \u2014 Dual publish<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
        \n
      • Discovery \u2192 WordPress and<\/strong> POST PHP \/api\/discovery (HMAC)<\/li>\n\n\n\n
      • Static HTML drop under IIS for offline<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

        Phase 3 \u2014 ARR + auth<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
          \n
        • Reverse-proxy \/app \u2192 AI _WebServer dashboard port<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • Windows\/AD auth on app path<\/li>\n\n\n\n
        • TLS termination at IIS<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

          Phase 4 \u2014 Deploy + recycle (gated)<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
            \n
          • iis deploy \/ package robocopy\/WebDeploy with dry-run + AD allowlist<\/li>\n\n\n\n
          • App pool recycle after deploy<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

            Phase 5 \u2014 Full portal<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
              \n
            • Signed webhooks PHP \u2192 automation \/ discovery<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • osTicket \/ MyBB loops<\/li>\n\n\n\n
            • Cache purge after publish<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

              What not to do<\/h3>\n\n\n\n
                \n
              • Do not expose unrestricted \u201crun any typed command\u201d on public PHP.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • Do not store WP app passwords in the PHP webroot.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • Do not mark discoveries posted on dry-run (already enforced).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
              • Prefer AI \u2192 signed push\/file drop over PHP shelling to the desktop agent.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n

                WordPress on IIS<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

                WordPress may run on IIS with PHP FastCGI:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

                  \n
                1. Configure AI: wordpress config site https:\/\/yoursite \u2026 enabled on<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                2. Use Application Passwords<\/strong> over HTTPS only.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                3. Prefer draft until reviewed (discovery wp-status draft).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                4. Pretty permalinks need web.config URL rewrite rules (IIS-side).<\/li>\n\n\n\n
                5. Optionally post to staging site\/app pool before production.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n
